Fall Fair

We opted for the local fair instead of the fall festival, which is usually something I don't like to miss.  Just wasn't up for seeing all the kiddos from school on a Saturday.  We enjoyed some family time at the fair.  We spent a lot of money on very little.

Tony and I left a little baffled:  Was the fair in this condition when we were children and we just overlooked it because of all the excitement?  How did we pay so much for so little?  Just how does one get involved with the fair?  We saw all sorts....

The little ones didn't notice anything but a fun time.  They rode the Berry Go Round that didn't go round, the jet skis that had very little jet about them, the motorcycles whose seatbelts were cable ties, and went down the thrill hill on a potato sack. All in all it was a fun adventure for them.  For us, it was mostly an opportunity to be thankful for all that we have and the lifestyle we live.
